I found a list of symptoms. I check every symptom, checked close sister conditions but I don’t check boxes for them. Went to doctor and told them I am thinking ENDO is a possibility and what symptoms fit. Obviously they think other conditions but at least it’s on their radar

Did you tell them ibprophen isnt helping? Cause if they just say that please see a new doctor because even if it’s not ENDO it’s somthing and it’s not helpful to keep getting a rinse and repeat reaction

yup ive been told them that no otc medicine helps 💔 every time i get my period i have to take like 8 pills of extra strength tylenol but obviously i cant keep doing that plus it only curbs the cramps for like 1hr at most and idk how to even get a new gyn who will take me seriously 💔

It’s a shopping thing. You have to find a new one and if the new one doesn’t work get a new one. Obviously if they are actively TRYING don’t push them out but your doctor right now isn’t helping
